Bola Tinubu, the All Progressives Congress’ presidential candidate, hosted Governor Dapo Abiodun of Ogun State on Friday.
During his visit to the former governor of Lagos State, Governor Abiodun offered his support for his presidential bid in the 2023 general election.
In a tweet, the Ogun State Governor stated that he is paying a visit to the ruling party’s National Leader to congratulate him on his victory in the party’s presidential primary.
Tinubu received 1,271 votes to defeat his nearest challenger, former Transportation Minister Rotimi Amaechi, who received 316 votes, and Vice President Yemi Osinbajo, who received 235 votes.
The Ogun State Governor who shared a picture of the visit on his Twitter account wrote, “I paid a visit to our national leader, @officialABAT to congratulate him on his emergence as the presidential candidate of our great party, the All Progressives Congress, @OfficialAPCNg
“I also gave our assurances of support in the next political process that has now begun ahead of the 2023 presidential election.”
This comes after Tinubu declared that Abiodun would not have been Governor without God’s and his assistance.
“This one sitting behind me here, could not have become governor without me?” Tinubu claimed during his visit to APC delegates in Ogun State. They tore up all of his posters when we were at the stadium. They wouldn’t even hand over the party flag to him; I was the one who brought it.
“If he wants to meet God at the right place, he must know that he would not have become governor without God and me.”
